K-Gr 3Two appealing introductions to distinctive regions of the world. Each double-page spread presents information about an animal baby, designates the area in which it lives, and includes vital facts such as birth weight, food, and natural enemies. The text is written in clear and simple language. End notes explain the different types of arctic habitats and the layers of tropical rain forests. The books' main selling point, however, is the engaging full-color photographs that provide a close-up look at each animal. Collections could benefit from both titles, although Arctic Babies covers an environment that is not frequently encountered in children's books.Kathy Piehl, Mankato State University, MNBook Details
